This 5-ounce round Mexican Libertad, released in 2014, is a stunning example of the world’s first major silver bullion coin. It is made from .999 fine silver by Casa de Moneda, Mexico's oldest mint, established in 1535. This coin features the iconic Winged Victory symbol on the obverse and the Coat of Arms of Mexico on the reverse. It is an impressive collector’s item and an ideal addition to any silver portfolio.
 
Despite this increasing demand for the coins, mintages of most versions and sizes of the Libertad — even the flagship one-ounce silver coin produced in more significant numbers than other versions — have remained substantially lower than that of most other major bullion series. That is part of the appeal of the coins, and one of the reasons why so many silver and gold Libertads have acquired market premiums way above their intrinsic metal value, especially for certain earlier and low-mintage coins.

The series is also beloved for its iconic design inspired by the classic 1921 gold Centenario coin issued to mark the centennial of Mexican independence. It features a depiction of the gilded statue of the Greek goddess Nike (known in Mexico as the angel of victory) that rests on top of the famous victory column in Mexico City.
